Answer: The maximum possible speed v is √2(  hν - Ф  ) / m

Explanation: You could be referring to the provided explanation, despite the fact that the question isn't comprehensive. When a photon collides with the surface of any metal, it transmits all of its energy to the electron in the atom. The collision causes the electron to travel with a certain amount of kinetic energy. This is referred to as the photoelectric effect. The maximum kinetic energy is calculated using Einstein's equation for the photoelectric effect:

K.E. = hν - Ф

½ mv² = hν - Ф

Hence the maximum possible speed is:

v = √2(  hν - Ф  ) / m

For more information on the photoelectric effect refer to this link: brainly.com/question/25027428

A tennis player tosses a tennis ball straight up and then catches it after 1.64 s at the same height as the point of release.
ipn [44]

A. The acceleration of the ball while it is in flight?

magnitude is 0 m/s² (magnitude is zero)

B. The velocity of the ball when it reaches its maximum height is 0 m/s (magnitude is zero)

C. The initial velocity of the ball 8.036 m/s upward

D. The maximum height reached by the ball is 3.29 m

<h3>A. How to determine the acceleration in the flight</h3>

Considering that the ball came to rest after 1.64s, it means the entire acceleration of the flight is zero as the ball was not moving in any form again.

<h3>B. How to determine the velocity at maximum height</h3>

At maximum height, the velocity of the ball is zero as it no longer has magnitude to keep going upwards. Hence the ball begins to ball down.

<h3>C. How to determine the initial velocity</h3>
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s
  • Time of flight (T) = 1.64 s
  • Time to reach maximum height (t) = T / 2 = 1.64 / 2 = 0.82 s
  • Initial velocity (u) =?

v = u - gt (since the ball is going against gravity)

0 = u - (9.8 × 0.82)

0 = u - 8.036

Collect like terms

u = 0 + 8.036

u = 8.036 m/s upward

<h3>D. How to determine the maximum height reached by the ball</h3>
  • Time to reach maximum height (t) = T / 2 = 1.64 / 2 = 0.82 s
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Maximum height (h)

h = ½gt²

h = ½ × 9.8 × 0.82²

h = 3.29 m

You have a length of tubing that is closed at one end. You cut the tubing into two pieces of unequal length, giving you a tube o
umka21 [38]

Answer:

The funda mental frequency of the original tube is 182Hz.

Explanation:

See the attachment for the calculation steps.

In order to calculate the fundamental frequency of the original closed tube we need to find the length of the tube which is equal to the sum of the lengths of the two new tubes.

For closed tubes

f = nv/4L (n = 1, 3, 5,...n)

f = nv/2L (n = 1, 2, 3,...n)

The details of calculation can be found below in the attachment.
